Controlling Persons This section should only be completed if the classification selected in Section 3 directs the Entity to provide Controlling Person details.

A Controlling Person is any natural person that meets any of the following tests, in the order below: 18 For companies and partnerships, Controlling Person means the natural person(s) that have a direct or indirect controlling ownership interest or voting rights (typically on the basis of a certain percentage, e.g. 10% or more) in the Entity. If no natural person(s) exercises control through ownership or voting rights per the above, the Controlling Person(s) of the Entity will be the natural person(s) who exercises control of the Entity through other means. Where no natural person(s) is/are identified as exercising control of the Entity through ownership interests or through other means above, the Controlling Person is deemed to be the natural person who holds the position of senior managing official. For trusts and other similar legal arrangements (e.g. foundations), Controlling Person means the natural persons being settlor, the trustee(s), the protector (if any), the beneficiaries or classes of beneficiaries, and any other natural person exercising ultimate effective control over the trust or similar legal arrangement. U.S. Controlling Persons When the Controlling Person is a US citizen/us passport holder and/or resident in the US for tax purposes (a green card holder or resident under the substantial presence test), an IRS form W-9 must be completed and attached. 19 If the Controlling Person is no longer a US citizen, a certificate of loss of nationality and a copy of the foreign passport must be provided. US Controlling Persons of US entities do not need to provide a W9 or US TIN. 15 As of 1.1.2017 a Sponsored Direct Reporting NFFE is required to have its own GIIN and can no longer use the GIIN of a sponsoring entity. 16 For Citco use only: C&T: Sponsoring Entity ViewPoint Number 17 For accounts in Cayman FIs, Investment Entities in Non-Participating CRS jurisdictions managed by another Financial Institution are not required to list any controlling persons if 1. You are a widely-held, regulated Collective Investment Vehicle (CIV) established as a trust and not required to identify your beneficial owners for AML/KYC purposes; 2. A pension fund established as a trust and not required to identify your beneficial owners for AML/KYC purposes, or 3. Your controlling ownership interest is held by a company listed on a stock exchange and subject to disclosure requirements (or you are a majority owned subsidiary of such a company). 18 These tests are cascading, with each to be used where the previous test has been applied and has not identified a Controlling Person. 19 If you have selected any of 3A (a), 3A (c), 3C, 3H, or 3I in the Entity Classification Section, US Controlling Persons do not need to provide a W-9 form or US TIN.
